IPEM Paris 2024 – The Daily Spin – September, 9th
IPEM Paris 2024 started on Monday, September 9th with the LP-Only Sessions and the Opening Reception (opened to all IPEM participants)!
The next day, the big event begins and opens its doors for all IPEM Paris 2024 participants, with more than 6,000 participants!
Let the stars align
IPEM Paris 2024 is just around the corner. Or should that be around the Arc de Triomphe! With “Forging Confidence” at the heart of this year’s agenda, the stars look set to align with an estimated 6,000 delegates convening at the Palais des Congrès. IPEM Paris 2024 is set to be the biggest event yet, as GPs and LPs fire up the discussion on where the industry is headed in an uncertain world. Is private equity well positioned to make a difference and how will GPs differentiate themselves and continue to create value? What is driving LP allocations in private markets, and where do they intend to hit the pause button, or the fast forward button? As well as a series of breakout rooms covering a range of topics spanning the video game industry to crypto investments and the benefits and challenges of semi-liquid funds, delegates will also have access to various Summit Sessions including Venture & Growth, Infra & Real Assets, Emerging Managers, Impact and North America.
It’s going to be a feast of knowledge and idea sharing, with plenty of opportunities to continue the discussion over cocktails with networking events, welcoming drinks, and a ‘not to be missed’ Wrap Party in Le Méridien Etoile.
We can’t wait to see you all next week.
NFL huddles with Wall Street
Touchdown Private Equity! 🏉 Today marks the day when the National Football League huddles together to vote on, and formally approve, private equity ownership of NFL teams. It is a big deal for both parties and expectations are that a number of teams will look to move quickly into the end zone and secure PE dollars by the end of the year. The NFL is the last remaining US professional sports league to open up to PE investment and as the league convenes it will likely agree to cap private equity investment at 10% of a team’s overall value. With no voting rights. Quite what this will do to team valuations is anyone’s guess, but any investment made by PE firms will be far from a nickel and dime affair. The Dallas Cowboys are currently the richest franchise, with a valuation of $10 billion. You could say today represents the NFL’s game winning drive. With sports franchises proving a hugely popular investment theme, it’ll be interesting to watch some of the PE industry’s big names jostle for position. Let the game commence.
